A kiss
............
So we lay there in the dark....
A raw and naked love burning between us....
All the secret rivers ablaze.....
Breathing in beauty....
Breathing out pain....
.. ..
A phantom of desire ....
A shadow with a smile....
.. ..
The invading stillness whispers ....
From an unknown world.....
Drinking from your image....
drinking from my own.....
.. ..
The scattered ashes once again rose to become ....
A burning phoenix, ....
Flooding the holes of my being with a soft light....
Illuminating the world we try to build.....
.. ..
A panic craving sweeps over me. ....
.. ..
Time....
.. ..
Time stood still for us....
Embarrassed by our honesty....
Hoping to make a gift out of a few....
More stolen moments. ....
.. ..
The Future Past....
One moment stretched out to all eternity....
.. ..
Again the panic ....
.. ..
So much lost, so much taken....
Broken pleasure ....
Dissonant beauty....
.. ..
Have I been cradling an illusion?....
.. ..
Poisoned to believe love is beyond me....
That I am undeserving....
And having found it ....
Kept it a secret....
A dirty little secret.....
